Hormone therapy involves using medications and treatments to manage hormone levels and relieve associated symptoms. At Harmony Hormone Clinic, we offer comprehensive hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to help both women and men restore optimal hormone balance.
Maintaining proper hormone levels is essential for health and wellbeing. When hormones become imbalanced, it can lead to unpleasant symptoms and increased risks for certain diseases. Getting timely treatment for hormone deficiencies through therapy can provide immense benefits.
Below we will explore key topics around hormone therapy, including common reasons for treatment, procedures, lifestyle factors, and the advantages of pursuing care from our clinic.
There are a variety of reasons both women and men visit Harmony Hormone Clinic to explore hormone replacement therapy. Recognizing some of the most common motivations can help you determine if treatment might be right for you.
One of the top reasons women consider women&39;s hormone therapy is to find relief from menopausal symptoms. As estrogen levels decline in perimenopause and menopause, women may contend with:
Estrogen therapy can reduce the severity of these symptoms, allowing women to feel like themselves again.
The male equivalent of menopause is andropause, when testosterone levels decline with age. Symptoms include:
Men&39;s hormone replacement therapy to restore testosterone levels helps counteract these effects.
Estrogen plays an important role in maintaining bone density. During perimenopause and menopause, dropping estrogen levels lead to accelerated bone loss, increasing osteoporosis risk.
Hormone therapy can prevent excessive bone loss, reducing chances of fractures later in life.
The process for starting hormone replacement therapy will depend partially on your symptoms and medical history. However, there is a general framework our clinicians follow.
During a consultation at Harmony Hormone Clinic, we will:
We will also perform lab tests to measure current hormone levels, which allows us to pinpoint deficiencies.
Our clinicians analyze hormone test results along with your symptoms to develop a customized treatment plan. We explore options like:
The treatment plan lays out the course of therapy, scheduling, and follow-up to achieve hormone balance.
With a treatment plan in place, we take steps to initiate therapy:
Hormone therapy requires close collaboration between patient and clinician. We adjust approaches over time to dial in what works best for you.
While treatment is essential for correcting hormone deficiency, patients can also help support the process through healthy lifestyle choices.
Eating a balanced, nutritious diet helps the body better utilize hormones for optimal effect. Key diet tips include:
Exercise promotes circulation, muscle/bone health, emotional wellbeing, and more.
Managing stress supports mental health and keeps hormones balanced.
Staying on top of care ensures the best hormone therapy results.
Estrogen therapy may help strengthen women's bones and reduce fracture risk after menopause. A study found that women who took estrogen alone had a 30% lower risk of hip fractures compared to women who didn't take hormones. This protective bone effect can persist for many years after stopping estrogen.
